Auckland City Mission:all hands on deck for second lockdown
It's all hands on deck at the Auckland City Mission, close to two weeks after it was announced the city would be going back to alert level 3. Demand for food parcels trebelled during the first lockdown in March, and since then has steadied to double what it normally is. When Auckland entered Level three this time, staff at the mission were determined to make sure its most vulnerable would be taken care of. Katie Doyle spoke with Missioner Chris Farelly about what has been going on.
